• Your First Visit at Stella Maris Acupuncture & Wellness

    You will receive an email containing a link to complete our health history form online. If you do not receive this email, please contact us so we can ensure you have access to the form prior to your appointment.

    This appointment lasts approximately 90 minutes and includes intake, diagnosis, treatment plan and treatment. During your visit, your Acupuncturist will spend about 30 minutes discussing your primary concern and any other health issues. You are encouraged to ask questions.

    Many patients find their first visit very relaxing and are pleasantly surprised that the needles are not painful.

    Please be sure to bring a list of current medications and any exams, MRI reports, x-ray reports, or ultrasound and lab results to your first visit.

  • A comprehensive health check-in evaluation will be conducted, followed by an Acupuncture treatment designed specifically for your diagnosis and health objectives. This session will closely resemble your initial visit and will typically last between 45 minutes to 1 hour, contingent upon the therapies implemented.

  • Report of Findings

    During your third appointment, we will review any changes you have experienced regarding your condition. Afterwards, your practitioner will present the recommended treatment plan.
